Smart calling out his LOS at mid-season...

Georgia football coach Kirby Smart saw warning signs, couldn’t avoid LSU trap

BATON ROUGE, La. — Georgia football coach Kirby Smart saw this one coming, and as it turned out, there was nothing he could do to prevent it.

The trap at LSU was real.

The Tigers (6-1, 3-1 SEC) were a hungry, talented team with the athletes to match up with the Bulldogs (6-1, 4-1). LSU had the quarterback and coaching staff capable of exploiting Georgia weaknesses that had surfaced throughout a 6-0 start that had some observers whistling by the graveyard.

LSU’s 36-16 victory Saturday at Tiger Stadium was as thorough as it was convincing, across the board, offense, defense, special teams and in the coaching booth.

There were signs: Missouri rushed for four touchdowns on UGA, Tennessee held Jake Fromm without a TD pass and sacked him three times, and Vanderbilt had 91 yards rushing in the first half a week before.

Smart called his team out at the time for its deficiencies, and he brought them back up against after the loss in Baton Rouge after accepting blame for the defeat.

“Look guys, we didn’t play real physical at Missouri, we didn’t play the way way needed to play at Missouri, Vanderbilt ran the ball on us,” Smart said. “Look, this is not just popping up out of the ground

“We’ve been telling our guys. And I really think they’ve listened and they understand, we just have to keep getting better.”

Smart challenged his team at the start of the week to match the Tigers’ physicality, and he and his players said in the days leading up to the loss that they would need to play their best game.

“They better knuckle up,” Smart had said. “We’re going to find out a lot about our team.”

It might just be a case of LSU being a better football team at this point of the season.

That would at least explain why Smart felt he needed to press with a fake field goal in the first quarter and his team down 3-0.

Georgia lost seven starters off last season’s SEC championship defense, leaving a suspect front seven and some youthful spots in the secondary.

The Tigers exposed both with bold play calling, a relentless run game chunk plays through the air.

It was going to be a tough matchup for the Bulldogs even had Smart chosen to kick a field goal on the first drive and Jake Fromm had a better day throwing the football.

Smart recognized this team’s deficiencies in spring drills and put the players through a rigorous fall camp filled with lots of ones on ones scrimmaging against one another.

The physical practices have continued into the season, Smart recognizing the Georgia team’s need for more growth and toughness.

The Bulldogs have been focused and prepared in each outing, but they are also the youngest team in the SEC with more than two-thirds of the roster freshmen and sophomores.

“We’ve got what we’ve got and we’re going to keep getting better, that’s the only thing we can do,” Smart said. “Our kids acknowledge we didn’t play our best game, and then today we have not gotten out of this team what we should get out of them, and that’s on me as the leader, us as the coaches, and all of the players have to buy into that.”

Smart said he’ll challenge his players during the bye week to define their identity, the desired one having not been completely on display since a third quarter dismantling of South Carolina the second week of the season.

“That’s where we’ve got to look ourselves in the mirror and say OK, who are we? Is this who we are?” Smart said. “We’ve consistently not played as physical as we need to on the defensive line, and we haven’t been as consistent as we need to offensively.

“So if that’s if who we are, we’ve got to get better. And that’s what we’re going to try to do in the off week, guys.”

At Tiger Stadium is NEVER a trap game unless you’re a shytty football coach.

That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read.

Our boys went and fought and died when called, barely fielded a team in 1942 and didn't field one in 1943.

Meanwhile, 1 of the 2 nattys that UGA claims and still brags about to this day was in 1942, won literally on the lives of their opponents thanks to draft deferments.

Never ever forget this fact Gator fans, and remind those UGA sons of *****es about it whenever possible...

Florida–Georgia football rivalry - Wikipedia


1942: 75 and oh![edit]
Having lost most upper-class players to service in World War II, the 1942 Florida Gators brought an inexperienced 3-4 squad into Jacksonville for the 1942 contest with Georgia.[9][10][32] The Bulldogs, on the other hand, still had many veteran players thanks to the draft deferments of the players who were enrolled in the University of Georgia's ROTC program, and brought a 7-0 record and No. 1 ranking to Jacksonville.[32]

Georgia halfback Charley Trippi and Heisman Trophy-winning back Frank Sinkwich combined to score seven touchdowns as Georgia crushed Florida 75-0, the largest margin in series history.[9][10][33] The Bulldogs finished the regular season 10–1, won the Southeastern Conference championship, defeated the UCLA Bruins 9-0 in the Rose Bowl, and were named national champions by multiple polls and ratings services.[34][35] Meanwhile, the depleted Gators[36] did not win another game during the 1942 season, and with even more players joining the war effort afterward, would not field a team at all in 1943.[9][10][37]

One of my favorite cartoons (GSMB days) was of a dog house with bowls with all the coaches names that SOS had caused to be fired. I think Steve's character was sitting on it.

Go Gators F^CK Georgia!

Florida football: First look at Gators’ keys to success in the Cocktail Party

1. Slow the Georgia power running game
The Dawgs didn’t look it against LSU, but this is a dangerous and balanced offense led once again by an effective power running game.
Despite being limited to 113 yards rushing and only 3.8 yards per carry at LSU, Georgia still ranks 24th nationally in rushing offense and averages 5.8 yards per carry on the ground. Georgia likewise ranks No. 6 nationally in rushing efficiency offense despite the LSU debacle and is 20th in explosive runs.
Elijah “The New Deal” Holyfield, a powerful and fast back who loves to square up tacklers downhill, is the most frightening runner for a Gators defense that enters the game ranked a concerning 10th in the SEC in tackling rate. Holyfield averages 7.5 yards a carry and ranks second in the SEC in yards gained after contact, behind only Kentucky’s Benny Snell (Florida’s Jordan Scarlett is third).
Florida ranks 12th nationally in S&P+ defense and 21st nationally in total defense, but they rank only 73rd in rushing defense, largely thanks to missed tackles and the lack of a truly effective three-technique or pile-mover along the interior of the defensive line.
Georgia knows this, and this matchup is the biggest concern for the Gators and the key to the football game.

Not gonna lie, we don't match up well against these azzsniffers.

 

[MJMGator]

Not gonna lie, we don't match up well against these azzsniffers.

I think we can run on them.

 

[aka]

Not gonna lie, we don't match up well against these azzsniffers.

The thought had crossed my mind. Let's just say I'm concerned.

 

[Durty South Swamp]

I picked us to lose to lsu and was wrong so I dunno about this one. I honestly think LSU is a better team than uga so I feel like we win this one.

 

[Nomadigator]

A kind reminder we are a 3-Phase team that owns Q4 and owned LSU. Trouble coming...BIG Trouble...

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

It obviously all starts with containing their run game. We don’t win if they come out and run all over us, and quite frankly it would probably be ugly. Fromm can’t beat us through the air if we shut the RBs down. LSU proved it.

 

[Lake Gator]

I like the Gators strength, fitness, adjustments and mental toughness. Even if Dwags punch'em in the mouth early, Florida proved against LSU they can absorb it and respond. I like Gators' chances if its a one score game at the start of the 4th.

Which team will show up: The Hungry Gators or the Mighty Gators?

Hungry Gators gotta eat and show up to play four quarters of football. Adversity makes them play harder, and falling behind makes their stomachs growl even more. They don't care what they're ranked or who is favored to win a game, they know there's always room for improvement. UGA being favored by 7.5 points challenges them.

Mighty Gators expect to win. They know they are the shyte and will point towards poll numbers and shared opponents to prove it. They don't have time or upstart trap teams or fierce rivals they know they should beat. They can move the ball and score a lot of points and make a lot of big plays, but if things turn against them they can rapidly fold. UGA being favored by 7.5 points insults them.

I think we know who showed up against Kentucky and who showed up versus Vandy, MSU, and LSU. We need to be hungry to beat Georgia.

Agreed. Now if he has said he saw warning signs with how much trouble they have had with teams like Tennessee I would buy it. Regardless of scores they have had issues with things against weaker teams that couldn't be exposed the same way LSU did.

I think you are spot on.
Honestly, I think Fields is a better QB, but they don't seem to have a willingness to use him as a passer yet.
However, I wouldn't be shocked if Fields got in this weekend in some packages, and they allowed him to throw a little. 2 weeks off, hasn't really thrown much, so not as much for us to go on. Plus he can move.

 

[Gator by the Sea]

I lol'd the first time...but adding the HBC just makes it that much better.

Go Gators!

 

[rogdochar]

Townsend seems to run like Malik Davis - hint, hint.

 

[G8trwood]

It is going to be a tough game, concerned that their strengths go to our D’s weaknesses. Power running game. Our D line has so far excelled against slow O lines. How athletic is UGA’s line. Our lightweight guys seem to really get washed out with mobile lineman

I have a lot og family in Atlanta and dawg central, would really like this one ;)
